Spring Folly: A 20th Anniv. Celebration

"Opus 7, one of the most esteemed musical groups anywhere" - Richard Campbell, The Gathering Note, December 2009

Leap into the joy of Spring as Opus 7 lets down its collective hair in the biannual Spring Folly concert, which is quickly becoming a favorite of local audiences. Featuring humorous works and music inspired by the romantic season of Spring, this concert will also showcase works by the winners of our Student Choral Composition Awards, as well as some satirical election-year advice. The final concert of our 20th-Anniversary Season will end where we first began, with a concert in one of First Hill's architectural treasures - First Covenant Church. This 900+ seat circular interior was built in 1911 and was the location of Opus 7's first concert in May of 1992.

Opus 7 was formed by Loren Ponten in 1992 and features some of the Northwest's finest choral artists. The group is known for its glorious sound, ardent musicality, and innovative programming of late 19th-, 20th-, and 21st-century choral repertoire.
